Recipe: Chicken and Vegetable Food for Dogs with Diabetes
Cottage cheese may seem like a bland food to you, but your dog will surely be enticed by the aroma. It is also high in calcium and protein, making it an excellent addition to dog food. This food for dogs with diabetes uses cottage cheese and chicken as the main protein sources.
As I mentioned, your veterinarian can help you cater this recipe to your dog’s unique nutritional needs. If your pet doesn’t like chicken or is allergic, you can substitute another protein source. If your pet has a sensitivity to dairy products, you can substitute other ingredients for the cottage cheese.

Your veterinarian will also help you to decide if this recipe is appropriate for your diabetic dog. They may recommend adding some supplements or additional ingredients to make the meal nutritionally balanced for your Fido.
